Shad is de man! He is also a IKF Grand National Champion and IKF registered expert...he kicked butt last night! And puts together some great cars....
Car looks great Shad! Good luck on the racing and we hope you guys can make it to some Redline Time Attacks this year! Hopefully, next time we will give Billy all four wheels on the track instead of three:biggrin:
Biobanker,I hope that we don't have those issues but the NSX is repairable but it just has a smaller volume of body men that have the knowledge to work on them. As far as why the NSX? You are correct. My NSX is about as far as anyone has taken one and still kept the full interior. It also handles pretty well as far as most around our area are concerned. But as I hope you will see @ NSXPO in Oregon, This car Shad built talks to you like no other vehicle I have ever driven. Consider the fact that with significantly less tire, 300+/- less RWHP, and a stock body that produces less downforce, and my first weekend in the car, it came within 3 tenths of a second of matching the Factor X beast with Billy Johnson (A REALLY GOOD DRIVER). He is far in excess of my talents, but my point is that Shad has done such a GREAT job of highlighting the cars talents that we were able to show what these cars are capable of with a rookie driver. Just my .02 cents

Mike,
Maybe we can make the Laguna Time Attack but it is to early to tell, Oh yea! by the way just 3 or your tires have more tread width on the ground than all 4 of my little Hoosier's and my 300RWHP less

Thanks Kip. You need to give yourself more credit, you are a great driver and it was a pleasure competing against you. We'll have to do it again soon.Biobanker,I hope that we don't have those issues but the NSX is repairable but it just has a smaller volume of body men that have the knowledge to work on them.

No texting on track. My beady little eyes will be watching.The true test will be can I follow for so long and go so slow for so long and if I am lucky I won't fall a sleep, I told him I would be fine.
Yes, the NSX is as repairable as any other car but it will cost more to fix than most. Why build an NSX race car? #1 We love the NSX and #2 passing a Ferrari 430 challenge car with a 17 year old car. Priceless........Shad
Haha Ry is on Prime!
Glad you guys are coming out to play this year!

That is such a shameless lie. :tongue: Watching Kip just about drool on himself this weekend, I thought, "As remarkable as the car is, it's nothing compared to what Shad has done rewiring Kip's brain. Absolutely manical."Why build an NSX race car? #1 We love the NSX and #2 passing a Ferrari 430 challenge car with a 17 year old car. Priceless........Shad
